How can I sell this dumb I bond my dad bought me when I was born in 1998?

The last answer is wrong: An I-Bond is not a marketable security: You do not need a broker to sell it: Go online: It depends on whether your father bought it as a Legacy treasury investment or treasury direct investment: If you have the actual tangible bond in your hand, it is a legacy: Just complete the back and take it to your local bank

Make sure you understand the taxes that you will owe on the income before you decide to cash it in. It might pay to wait until you are an adult off your parents tax returns. The bond may not be as dumb as you are.
